Jess Levasseur

Jess Levasseur has been a Brookline resident for nearly 11 years, first as a renter, and now as a homeowner in a multifamily house in Precinct 9. Like many other families, Jess and her family chose Brookline for its walkability, schools, and community. 

Jess is a teacher and parent to three children who are, or have been, in PSB. She has two children currently at FRR and one who graduated from BHS in May of 2025. 

She worked in the Public Schools of Brookline from the Fall of 2015 until the spring of 2021. She is a middle school French teacher who worked at both Hayes and FRR, and then at FRR during her time in Brookline Schools. She left Brookline schools to teach in Newton in the Fall of 2023. She is the Faculty Advisor to the MATHCOUNTS club and one of the track coaches for the spring season. 

 As a teacher, she is in a position to advocate for the education that Brookline needs while bringing an understanding of the challenges Brookline schools are facing both as an educator and as a parent. 

As someone who is passionate about politics, and who cares deeply about the Brookline community, she wants to take part in finding solutions to help Brookline thrive not only in the present moment, but beyond her time here. Jess believes that a thriving Brookline is a place that is welcoming, affordable, economically diverse and strives to meet the demands of a changing climate.
